Why delete?

I was wondering why you deleted the show view. Can you use git to get back the file if you found that it was needed in a new feature? And finally while I've learned its good practice for things to run with the minimum amount of code, is it bad practice to keep unrun files within the file tree?

Thanks in advance!!
